Image Library question

Thanks for the info but I'm not sure what to do from here. You say to 
set the image IDs above 1 billion but how do I do that? I'm importing a 
folder full of images, I'm not even sure how to do that with one image.

I admit to be a little dismayed and discouraged that this problem and 
I'm surprised it hasn't been addressed yet. (hek, it's not even a 
"confirmed" bug in the Bug Database. This has become a big issue for me 
as now all my images are messed up and I have no confidence in the 
image management system of RR.

I may now need to completely rebuild my stack from scratch to fix this 
problem and it will cost me a lot of time and effort.
